章 172: Chapter 176: Warm Family

Nina appeared in Duncan's line of sight—the girl was trotting all the way, a pleasant smile on her face, and as soon as she saw her uncle sitting at the door of the antique shop in a daze, she picked up her pace and raised her hand to wave, "Uncle, I'm back!"

Duncan was jolted out of his reverie, and he set his thoughts aside for the moment, rising to greet his "niece." Seeing the girl out of breath, he paused slightly and knitted his brows, "Didn't I give you money for the bus? Why did you run back after school?"

After a long while, she produced a small paper packet and handed it over, "I... on my way back, I passed by Dr. Albert's clinic..."

Duncan took the packet and felt it, realizing it contained a few pills.
